Efficient n-th Root Computation Microcontrollers Using Magic Constants & Newton #WorldResearchAwards

Image
Introduction The rapid expansion of embedded systems in IoT modules , smart sensors , and wearable devices has intensified the need for fast and accurate numerical computations on platforms with limited computational resources. Among these operations, n-th root computation plays a crucial role in many scientific and engineering tasks. Conventional library functions often fail to meet stringent real-time and efficiency requirements. This research addresses these challenges by proposing optimized floating-point algorithms tailored for microcontroller-based environments . Magic-Constant-Based Initial Estimation A key contribution of this work is the use of a carefully designed “ magic constant ” to generate an efficient initial approximation for n-th root calculations. This approach significantly reduces the number of iterations required for convergence. By leveraging properties of floating-point representations, the method provides a strong starting point that balances simplicity, s...

Corrosion Failure Analysis of MWD Cylinders in Directional Drilling #WorldResearchAwards,

Image
Introduction During shale gas drilling operations in Central China, the reliability of measurement while drilling (MWD) tools is critical for real-time logging and operational safety. The pressure-resistant cylinder , a core structural component of the MWD tool, is continuously exposed to high stress, corrosive drilling fluids, and abrasive particles. In this study, a severe failure characterized by extensive microcracking on the outer surface of a Cr20Ni11 (UNS 308) austenitic stainless-steel pressure-resistant cylinder is investigated. The failure significantly compromised tool integrity and data reliability, making it essential to identify the underlying corrosion and fracture mechanisms from a materials science and engineering perspective. Macroscopic and Physicochemical Characteristics of the Failed Cylinder Comprehensive macroscopic morphology analysis and physicochemical performance tests were conducted to evaluate whether the failed pressure-resistant cylinder met standard...

Progress in Charge Transfer in 2D Metal Halide Perovskite Heterojunctions Review #WorldResearchAwards

Image
Introduction Metal halide perovskite ( MHP )-based heterojunctions have emerged as a transformative platform in optoelectronic materials research due to their layered crystal structures, tunable band gaps, and outstanding light–matter interaction. When combined with two-dimensional (2D) materials , these heterojunctions enable precise control over interfacial charge transfer , which is essential for high-performance optoelectronic devices. Understanding the fundamental mechanisms governing carrier generation, separation, and recombination at these interfaces is therefore a central research focus. Charge Transfer Mechanisms at MHP/2D Interfaces At the core of MHP-based heterojunction performance lies interfacial charge transfer. Band alignment between MHPs and 2D materials such as graphene , MoS₂, and WS₂ facilitates efficient electron–hole separation. Type-II band structures are particularly effective, allowing electrons and holes to migrate into different layers, thereby extendin...
